Whilst I dont often go to APs , I find it a matter of principle to obtain notes. And also my personal responsibility to myself.
A teacher of Reflexology once taught a class of students that she felt this was invasive. That they were 'her' notes. And that making another set to give to the clients was appropriate.
Totally unacceptable.
The APs arent really used to empowered patients. And in a lot of respects in this subject are years behind ADs (Allopathic Doctors).
Beware, notes maybe unprofessional or have doodles on them. It maybe necessary to re-assure the AP that this is just simple procedure and not for a complaint..since this is relatively new.
But also with M.E. esp. obtaining notes can highlight bias and wrong thinking from the practitioner.
